Help us Build AI for Social Good

We’ve all seen how AI is revolutionising industries and changing the way we approach problems. But what if this incredible technology could be harnessed for social good? What if we could create an AI tool designed by the social sector, for the social sector, to tackle its unique challenges?

That’s exactly what we’re building with IDR Answers—the world’s first AI-powered search and analysis engine specifically tailored to answer key questions about social impact.

To make this vision a reality, we need your support. Our goal is to raise INR 10 lakh to help scale and strengthen IDR Answers, ensuring it remains accessible to nonprofits, social enterprises, and changemakers. With your donation, we can continue providing trusted, actionable insights to those who need them most.

When you support IDR, you also help us remain editorially and financially independent, and importantly, sustainable. But being part of our community is not just a monetary exercise; it signals your commitment to independent media, information you can trust, and creating social impact.

Members of our community have given us pro bono support, spread the word about us within their circles, and also fundraised on behalf of IDR. If you have other ideas about how you can help us do what we do, better, please reach out to us. We’d love to hear them. 

If you are having any trouble completing your donation, or if you would like to speak with us about a larger investment or long-term support, please reach out to us at donate@idronline.org and our team will guide you through the process.

Why people support IDR

“I give to IDR for purely selfish reasons: I’ve learned so much from reading different perspectives and insights. I feel like I have access to people, places and points of view that I might otherwise never have had access to. And I love that IDR makes me laugh each week! Thank you, Team IDR, for all you do.”

Priyanka Dutt, Social sector professional

“IDR is one of those rare and precious media platforms, which not only covers important social issues but covers them with great nuance. I support IDR because it provides a stage for voices from the ground, who are otherwise ignored, to share their lived experiences and stories. IDR’s engaging formats – long-form articles, podcasts, photo essays to humour series – make it an unparalleled and unrivalled platform today. I hope more readers come to the platform, subscribe and support it, because of its worth.”
